In October 3067, Rustin was part of a group of eight top Nellus Academy cadets sent on what was meant to be a straightforward voyage to [[Concord]] with [[General]] [[Gurald Eichner]], in theory as a public relations event in honor of [[Nestor]]'s new refueling station. Less openly, the cadets were meant to help detect a Lyran spy operating at the Nestor spaceport.<ref>''The Nellus Academy Incident'', ch. 2, 4</ref> After setting off on the ''[[Requirement]]'' on 21 October, Eichner and the cadets ran into trouble: hijackers, the Lyran-hired [[Bloody Stoats]], who came to capture the general.<ref>''The Nellus Academy Incident'', ch. 5–7</ref> Clashes between the cadets and the hijackers led to the DropShip crashing on [[Gienah#Phobos|Phobos]], a planetoid in the Gienah system that held the Stoats' base. Fighting continued between the wreckage and the base, leading to multiple deaths, including the death of Rustin's boyfriend George. Eventually the cadets managed to call a League force in for evacuation.<ref>''The Nellus Academy Incident''</ref>
